Welcome to Mechanical Engineering
A very warm welcome to the website of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Kalpataru Institute of Technology. We started our journey in the year of 1992. The discipline of Mechanical Engineering has a long and distinguished history of developing state-of-the-art technologies and exhilarating solutions for the mankind.
Our primary goal for graduate students is to train future leaders with high-quality engineering education. The faculty members are very active in teaching, research and service. Our dedicated faculty tries to disseminate amongst the students the latest developments in Applied Mechanics & Design, Dynamics & Control, Thermo-fluids & Processes, Energy, Materials & Manufacturing, and Automation & Robotics.
Our Laboratories have been very well established not only to cover complete syllabus but to motivate students to learn beyond the syllabus which definitely develops complete knowledge of the subject (both the practical and theoretical depth of knowledge) and develop skill sets of students to become promising engineers in future.
Department Profile
The department was established in the year 1992 with an initial intake of 30 which further was enhanced in two stages to 60 first and then to 120. The department is currently headed by Dr. B M Viswanatha, Associate Professor & HOD. The department is in optimum demand since its inception to till date.
The department has well experienced, highly qualified and committed faculty members. The department has 3 Professors with Ph.D degree - Dr. T M Chandrashekharaiah, Dr. Kiran T S, Dr. B M Viswanatha. Several faculty members are pursuing Ph.D degree in different universities.
The Department has research center recognized by VTU Belgaum and Tumkur University & received Rs. 20 lakh grant from VGST Govt. of Karnataka. Dr T M Chandrashekharaiah is guiding for Ph.D programme under VTU. The department organizes symposiums, workshops and seminars under Mechanical Engineering Association every year.
Intake: 60 Students
